Donald Trump says Mexico is going to build a fence to stop illegal
immigration to the United States (currently, people all over the
Americas move freely to the north in search of a better life)

But we are not anti immigrant! We just want to be able to choose who comes
here. We will never keep all immigrants out!

if you find bad immigrants, arrest them, load them on Air Buses, and
send them back home...or better yet...have the Royal Navy deliver them
back to their home country!

American border patrol arrests people, flys them back home and they
come right back to the land of milk and honey.

How crazy is that! Reminds me of US Congress passing new rules for the
manufacture of "toilets" a few years ago. Congress decided American
flush toilets were wasting entirely too much water during
flushing...five gallons. They mandated that new toilets are limited to
one gallon of water per flush. Now people have toilets that will not
properly flush a load of crap...they must be flushed multiple times to
clear the load. Maximum stupidity!

My house still has the old "wasteful" five gallon flushers. When you
load them up and flush...the contents are whisked away to the
wastewater treatment plant. I only need to flush once.

My sister threw all her old toilets away and install the new ones. Now
she runs for the plunger every time she flushes. So stupid! We must
not let these stupid people make decisions about our lives.

Can't imagine what sort of toilet you or your sister have! I have a
'lo flo' toilet, can have a small flush for a pee or larger flush if
needed. It definitely saves water, by the gallon, compared to the old
70s toilet that was there when I came here. Neater design as well
and far easier to clean.

Oh my...it is horrible Ophelia! These idiots are telling you that you
must use a vacuum cleaner with an undersized weak electric motor that
will not properly vacuum your floors. Why not build a modern power
plant to produce electricity...without polluting the air...Nuclear
Power?

Maybe she should try using less toilet paper. That is what usually
causes problems, and women tend to use that stuff by the yard. I have a
low flush toilet and it worked well for years. Then I started having
problems. I have really hard water and there was most of the little
holes around the top of the rim were clogged. Cleaning them out helped
but there was a still a problem. Then I reamed out the Venturi near the
bottom of the bowl. As soon as I did that it was back to normal.

There are some being built. We did have some which have been decommissioned
because they were so old. Unfortunately the French, or is the Chinese are
building the the new ones? I forget! They will of course change us the
earth for them. Our dear PMs have sold off every damned thing they can,
Would you believe that PM Brown sold off our gold, but not only did he do
that, he announced it in advance!!! Guess what happened to the price ...

How are they to be tracked down once in the country?

William should research new toilets...even not so new ones. They make a "jet-flush"
variety that carries waste with the same low-flow amount of water, just with more
force in the flush action.

Some years ago we had one of the original low flow at work. It was a
double or triple flush to get it to work right.

Now we have some of the newer Kohler at work and I have two at home and
they have been perfect. Oh, they are comfort height, a bit nicer as you
get older and don't bend as well.

that may not be too difficult. If you find one who is raping little
children, just go ahead and fire a half dozen test rounds into his
skull...don't send him back.

We got a low flush toilet. It works just beautifully. A flush takes 3 seconds - amazing! It has a larger type outlet so toilet to floor drain placement is critical. You're gonna get leaks if it's not done right.

The solution is pretty simple - count the sheets of toilet paper used and reduce it by 25%. If it still gets clogged, reduce it by a percentage more. When you get to a magic number where it never clogs, that's your huckleberry. OTOH, my theory is that men are able to count sheets but females are quite unable. Why that is is a mystery.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclea...United_Kingdom

"Nuclear power generates around one sixth (18.5% as of 2012) of the
United Kingdom's electricity. The UK has 15 operational nuclear reactors
at seven plants (14 advanced gas-cooled reactors (AGR) and one
pressurised water reactor (PWR)), as well as a nuclear reprocessing
plant at Sellafield."

Agreed. We bought a new one last November; I think you could
flush a squirrel in one attempt.
